aft, so her head would be out of water. An
how we was a-goin'! Hoopin', called it,
takin' every thing as it came; for, bless ye,
there wasn't time to ride any thing. She
just went right through, throwing the

you'd thought we was tug a-steamin'
against the tide II there had been q heavy
sea on we should have had to cut the line;
but, as it was, we held on and kept her at

of talkin' in the slack. The fish had slowed
up trife, the biggest Of 'em will get played

onto the line, and passed it aft for the pur-

up, and it gave a jerk that nigh took the

one Of US to the bottom, head over heels.

clapped on again and again. We was al
most jerked into pieces, but we kept at it,

an, getting pulled we got the boat within
twenty foot Of the fish, an tell you it
wasn't pleasant sight Itlooked q matter
of fifty foot across-a great big patch OF
black, a-goin' along like q steam engine,
whippin' its wings up and down so that the
water was churned into foam on each side.

q minute we was almost over it, and then
let it have the lance-a big one, At to kill q
whale. Well, mister, the next thing
knew was In the water. The fish riz, Jest

came down with crash that you could

have hit me on the arm and knocked me

see. The rest, they jumped overheard
when they see it comm, and swan oil, and
then hauled me toward the boat; and there
we hung for an hour, waitin' for party ia

too; my arm was broken and cut, as you
see It: But they took us in at last; the
wreck Of our boat was taken in, too, and
they began to pull in shore, when they
found that the bat.flsh was still on. They
all clapped onto the line and hauled away,
